Emoji is the Japanese word for smileys and ideograms - a way to express feelings or ideas in electronic communications. The word Emoji means picture (e) + letter (moji). There is a wide range of characters used, and the symbols or images are often in uniform. Several Emoji are precise to Japanese traditions, like bowing, white flower or a set of emoji showing famous dishes like sushi, ramen noodles, curry, etc.

To use Emoji on your Windows phone, you need to download an application that supports Emoji icons. In this article, we will be using the Nokia Lumia 920 for the purpose of illustrating the steps to achieve this. The method will be similar with most Windows phones.

Questions and Answers

Emoji Keys Art close when used for SMS?

I downloaded it from store, after that I pay to "unlock all emoji". When I want to try one of them for text someone, it close itself. I choose again another emoji and tab the "SMS", it close again. It's useless. I pay but I can't use it. Is there another requirement to use it?? Tell me please how to use it. Thank you

This is a problem pertinent to all applications from time to time. The solution is similar. First, you can try rebooting your device by turning your phone off and back on. If the problem persists, delete the Emoji application and reinstall it. Do not worry about unlocked content. It will still be there, and you do not have to buy it again.

If you have a computer running on Windows 8 or higher, Emoji can be accessed by right-clicking on the taskbar, selecting "toolbars" and then choosing the touch keyboard.

The touch keyboard icon will then appear in your system tray, and you can the activate it. Once the touch keyboard is up, you can simply select the Emoji "button" which is a smiley face symbol, and an Emoji selection will appear in your touch keyboard area. You can then select the Emoji you wish to use.

I am trying to find a unicorn emoji for my Windows phone?

I have a Nokia Lumia phone - a Windows phone - and can't seem to find a unicorn emoji, nor can I see my friends' iPhone unicorn emoji when they send them. I have tried: I tried to go to the Store and find an app for emoji. None of them had unicorns. I think it was caused by: I am thinking perhaps Windows Phones do not have unicorn Emoji yet.

Even with Windows 10 update, Lumia did not get a unicorn emoji. You can use a horse emoji, which is the closest you can get. Only Apple, Samsung Android, Android, and LG Android have unicorns. However, there might be further Windows updates with an expanded emoji list; and Microsoft Store may have a new emoji applications someday.
